Definately ram air for your car, they look better and you can get an air box for them.

First off, the car is beautiful. For the side markers, I put in some amber bulbs, and they look cool behind the clear lenses on my IROC

Why not put a stock hood back on in better condition? I think the Ram Air hoods belong on the 4th gens personally, but its your ride. Ive seen some good looking applications though on the 3rd gens Ill have to admit...but it usually depends on the color for me...
